===Digital lightfield technology===
The device is based on the theory that to understand the surrounding the visual cortex in our brain doesn’t need all the information-rich light that bounces off the objects around us. Hence, there is no need to re-create the light field in its entirety. Instead, the device only needs to capture select pieces of the light field and supply them to the brain via the eye.

Hence, there is no need to re-create the light field in its entirety. Instead, the device only needs to capture select pieces of the light field and supply them to the brain via the eye.  


Using this principle, the advanced Digital Lightfield Technology uses photonics to create lights of various depths and combines them with natural light to generate virtual objects. The idea is to narrow the gap between real-world and digital objects. Our brain will be a lot more comfortable processing lifelike virtual objects generated by the device.

The Magic Leap One is equipped with a powerful sensor suite that detects objects, planes, and surfaces in the surrounding environment and allows their reconstruction. With this technology, the system will see what the user sees of the physical environment. This way, the virtual objects will be capable of more than just establishing their presence along with the real objects. They’ll be able to interact with the surrounding physical world.
